FAQ

Padding

Can I replace the padding in my bed?

Yes, padding can be replaced in your SleepSafe Bed. Please contact your original Durable Medical Equipment provider (DME). Your DME will work with SleepSafe Bed Customer Support at 866.852.2337 to fulfill your request.

If I order padding, will it cover the safety rail windows?

You have a choice. When padding is ordered, it is factory installed to cover all four sides of the interior, including the safety rails with the windows. You can choose to have the padding installed over or around the safety rail windows.

Important! If you order a  bed with padding, we do not recommend using the bed if any of the pads have been removed. Removing the pads will leave a gap between the mattress and the bed side.

Please note that we manufacture two different sized foundations for a bed with padding and a bed without padding.

The first size is for a bed with padding installed. It allows just enough space for the padding to be installed and extend below the mattress surface.

The second size is for a bed without padding installed. It will be sized a bit wider so that it makes full contact with all four sides of the interior of the bed.

In either case, we are making sure the mattress fits tightly within the foundation to address the risk of entrapment or burrowing.

Is there a way to cover the Channel Cut-Out?

SleepSafe Bed - Cut-Out Insert in the HeadboardYes. We make an optional Cut-Out Cover that can be inserted into the Channel Cut-Out. The cover is fastened from the outside of the bed. For further information, call Customer Support at 866-852-2337.

If I order extra windows in the headboard and footboard AND padding, will it cover those windows?

No. We can add an extra window to the headboard and/or footboard and factory install the padding around the window.

Can I order pads after I have already received my bed?

Yes. but at a higher cost than if they were purchased at the time of the bed purchase. To retrofit padding, you will need to purchase a new mattress, to allow room for the padding, in addition to the padding.

Older models may need to have the foundation replaced as well. If you have any questions, call us toll-free at 866.852.2337.

How does the padding attach to a SleepSafe® Bed?

Industrial strength Velcro is used to secure the padding to a SleepSafe® Bed.

The safety rail pads are extended up and over the rails and attached on the outside. The headboard and foot boards pads extend just to the top of each and attach on the inside of the bed. The pads go right to the edge of the leg in the headboard and foot board.
